  • Right, I’m going to view a 2008 hornet 600 tomorrow. Anyone have any advice or things to look for?
    I’ve never bought a bike before, my dad sorted my last one on my behalf as it was more local to him.

  • Like a bicycle, consumables
    Chain, sprockets, tyres, bearings.
    Does it ride ok?

    What's your feeling of the seller. I'll buy just on my gut of the seller, or not.

  • What @skinny said. Also scratches to bar ends, exhaust, bottom of forks, footpegs, levers or anything that might suggest it's been down the road.

  • Only one question you need to ask yourself. Can I ride it home? If yes then buy the motorbike.

    Any indecision should just be posturing to negotiate a lower price. :)

    Have you checked the reg to make sure it's future ULEZ compliant. I think 2008 is around the cutoff.
